My husband is away in another country, and I’ve been living in Hyderabad with my in-laws. My two children, aged 9 and 10, were going to a CBSE school there. Due to family issues, I had to move back to my hometown, Ahmedabad. I contacted the school principal to request their transfer certificates so I could enroll them in a school here. However, the principal refused, stating they need both parents’ signatures for the transfer. This is difficult due to the ongoing family conflict. Is there any way I can get the transfer certificates for my children?

As the mother and primary caregiver, you have the legal right to obtain your children’s transfer certificates under Indian law. You can approach the school with legal documentation, such as a court order or an affidavit, demonstrating your authority to make decisions regarding their education, even in the absence of your husband’s signature.
